Della Duck is puzzled by the fact that both Ricky Gervais and his opponent(s) seem to be almost deliberately mis-characterizing one anothers' point of view, and then debating semantics based on that misinterpretation, thus neatly avoiding discussion of any relevant facts or issues.

Is it because I forgot to put a little red clown nose on her? Is that why my Della Duck image, which I slaved over for literally several minutes to create, utterly failed to engender any response whatsoever?


Fine, be that way. You and your Llama detector can all rot in a socialist paradise.

The people must not be allowed to criticize their elected leaders. Otherwise, the supreme sovereignty of The State comes into question.



Frederica Wilson: We Must Prosecute Anyone Who 'Makes Fun' Of Members Of Congress Online

Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-FL) on Tuesday went with other members of Congress to tour a detention facility for illegal immigrants. During a press conference following the tour, Wilson made a rather interesting comment. Apparently she believes anyone who "makes fun of members of Congress" on the Internet "should be prosecuted."

"Those people who are online, making fun of members of Congress, are a disgrace and there is no need for anyone to think that is acceptable," Wilson said. "We're going to shut them down and work with whoever it is to shut them down, and they should be prosecuted."

Ocasio-Cortez Claims Border Patrol Agents Turned Her Into A Newt
July 3rd, 2019
https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...e30f687a21.png


TEXAS—In an interview with reporters after a visit to an immigrant detention center, a visibly shaken Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez insisted that Border Patrol agents had turned her into a newt.

"How do you know Border Patrol is evil?" a journalist asked.

"Why, they turned me into a newt!" she cried. "I walked into that concentration camp and right away I knew I wasn't safe, because they pulled out their spellbooks and pointy witches' hats and started muttering ancient incantations. The next thing you know, I was a small, semiaquatic, salamander-like creature." She also claimed they all had long, warty noses and hats, though she later admitted she dressed them up like that.

The obvious question came to mind.

"Uh... a newt?" one bewildered reporter asked.

During the few awkward moments of silence that followed, you could "almost" hear the gears in Ocasio-Cortez's head slowly begin to turn, creaking from disuse. She suddenly realized the hole in her story, that she was no longer a newt.

Thinking fast, she replied, "I got better."

About the Declaration there is a finality that is exceedingly restful. It is often asserted that the world has made a great deal of progress since 1776, that we have had new thoughts and new experiences which have given us a great advance over the people of that day, and that we may therefore very well discard their conclusions for something more modern. But that reasoning can not be applied to this great charter. If all men are created equal, that is final. If they are endowed with inalienable rights, that is final. If governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, that is final. No advance, no progress can be made beyond these propositions. If anyone wishes to deny their truth or their soundness, the only direction in which he can proceed historically is not forward, but backward toward the time when there was no equality, no rights of the individual, no rule of the people. Those who wish to proceed in that direction can not lay claim to progress. They are reactionary. Their ideas are not more modern, but more ancient, than those of the Revolutionary fathers.

That ‘milkshake’ concoction included Quickrete cement and skin irritants. Ngo only started getting pummeled after he was shot with pepper spray and was basically defenseless. The gloves the shitholes were wearing had been strengthened with fiberglass.

Remember when the Tea Party used this tactic?

Ivanka is an advisor to the president. She could be paid for this but heads would explode, so she takes no pay. She’s a Wharton school of business graduate and a successful businessperson. Her passion is women’s empowerment so that’s what she focuses on. The recent G20 summit actually saw women heading every negotiating group for America, although that probably got zero publicity.

Most importantly, the President can trust her to give unvarnished opinions.

It would seem those Leftists that fear Trump’s finger on the nuclear button would welcome someone like her.

Huh?

Orange Man is bad, and therefore, everyone associated with Orange Man is also bad. It matters not one bit whether or not they are advocating for the rights of women and minorities in regions in which they have historically been oppressed. If someone associated with Orange Man thinks it's good, then it must be evil.
